Three ways to work it out

All three give the same answer — pick whichever is easiest to do in your head for these numbers.

Method	Working	Result
Decimal	100 × 0.33	33

Ten-percent chunks	10% of 100 = 10, then × 3.3	33

Nearby percentages of 100

Handy when you are comparing a tip, a discount, or a tax rate rather than one fixed figure.

Percent	of 100	100 minus it
5%	5	95
10%	10	90
15%	15	85
20%	20	80
25%	25	75
33%	33	67
50%	50	50

The last column is what is left after taking that percentage off — the number you actually pay after a discount, or keep after a deduction.

The reverse question

Going the other way — 33 is what percent of 100? — divides instead of multiplying: (33 ÷ 100) × 100 = 33%. That is the form to use when you know the part and the whole but not the rate, such as working out a score as a percentage or how much a price moved.

And to find the whole from the part: if 33 is 33% of some number, that number is 33 ÷ 0.33 = 100.
